DR Congo parliament forms road concession inquiry

National Assembly deputies will investigate financial transparency and legal compliance of road contracts.

Deputies in the DR Congo's National Assembly have established an investigative committee to scrutinize road concessions and toll stations. The committee will examine financial transparency and legal compliance related to these contracts.

The decision to form the inquiry commission was adopted through a project of resolution by the national deputies. This move signals a parliamentary effort to ensure accountability in the management of the country's road infrastructure projects.

The investigation will cover the management, financial transparency, and legal conformity of all road concessions and toll posts across the Democratic Republic of Congo. No specific timeline for the investigation's completion was provided in the announcement.
